The new fashion of Kim Jong Un's daughter, who is considered the most likely successor to the North Korean leader, is causing some speculation. The latest video released by Korea Central Television on May 15th attracted attention because of the outfit of the daughter, believed to be Jue, who attended the completion ceremony of a new urban area with Kim Jong Un. Jue, who is listening to Kim Jong Un's speech with her face close to her, is wearing a dark blue blouse. Looking at the sleeves fluttering in the wind, you can see that the upper arms are see-through. Jue has neatly arranged her hair and is dressed in see-through fashion. She is said to be 11 or 12 years old. The difference is obvious when compared to North Korean citizens of the same age who wear simple shirts and ties. Regarding Jue's "modern" outfit, South Korean media commented, "A young girl...North Korea is shocked by Kim Jong Un's daughter Jue's "see-through look." Jue's fashion has attracted attention in the past. When he first appeared in public in November 2022, he was wearing a relatively simple white down jacket. Four months later, when he appeared at a missile launch test, he was wearing a luxury coat believed to be from Christian Dior, which cost about 280,000 yen in Japanese yen, and became a hot topic. During an air force inspection in December 2023, he caught attention with his flashy leather coat and sunglasses, which looked like a matching outfit with his father, General Secretary Kim. Associate Professor Hiromi Kamoshita of Konan Women's University said that the authorities have repeatedly appealed through fashion that "Mr. Jue is a special person," and speculated about the complex feelings of North Korean citizens, saying, "(Q. Are there people who keep their criticisms to themselves?) There may be some. There may be, but I think it is almost impossible to criticize them openly." North Korea has a conservative view of the clothing of ordinary citizens, including the exposure of skin. Recently, in a British gardening program broadcast in North Korea, for some reason, even the jeans worn by the cast members were blurred. This is believed to have been aimed at prohibiting people from imitating so-called Western fashion, such as that of Europe, America, and Korea. While the clothing of ordinary citizens is strictly checked, the "see-through fashion" that Jue unveiled this time can be said to be contrary to the authorities' previous policy. With the possibility of resentment being generated among North Korean citizens, experts point out that changes are also being seen in the authorities. Associate Professor Kamoshita of Konan Women's University said, "They are making efforts to retain the support of young people by adopting Korean wave techniques in areas such as the expressions used in music videos, as seen on TikTok."
